Ricoh India Aims to Triple Growth by FY13


Kolkata, Sep 9 (IANS): Ricoh India, a subsidiary of Japan-based imaging solutions leader Ricoh Company, is eyeing three-fold growth in its revenue to Rs.900 crore by the 2013 fiscal, a company official said Friday.

"India is an attractive market. We are planning to grow our revenue three times by the end of FY13. Through widening our product line and improving sales and service structure, we hope to achieve our aim," company managing director Tetsuya Takano told reporters here.

The company, which has projected Rs.300 crore revenue for FY11, aims to increase its market share in India by expanding its dealer base to 800 by 2013 from the existing 300, of which 100 will be in the eastern region.

"The total market size of laser printers in India is pegged at 13.4 lakh units and is growing at the rate of over 12 percent annually," said Takano after launching three new models of printers.

The company is also getting into other IT-related products like projectors and portable video conferencing machines.

The parent company, which has mostly SMEs as its clients, is on the verge of inking a deal with global powerhouse in electronics and electrical engineering Siemens AG for supplying equipment.

Tanako said the Indian subsidiary contributed Rs.300 lakh to the company's total turnover which is $22 billion in FY10.
